August Reading Tracker

You can see what I read in July. I decided I did want a plan and since I am having reader burnout on every imaginable level I decided to throw in some books I’ve been desperately looking forward to.

Here’s what I’m reading in August:

1. Confessions of a Murder Suspect by James Patterson
2. The Glass Sentence by S. E. Grove
3. Can’t Look Away by Donna Cooner
4. Bad Luck Girl by Sarah Zettel
5. Isla and the Happily Ever After by Stephanie Perkins
6. Salt & Storm by Kendall Kulper
7. The Jewel by Amy Ewing
8. The Strange Maid by Tessa Gratton
9. The Unbound by Victoria Schwab
10. Ten Cents a Dance by Christine Fletcher
11. Chasing Power by Sarah Beth Durst

August 5: Two books down. Finished a book at work so onward to something else.

August 6: Finished Library Wars: Love & War volume 11 and onto Can’t Look Away!

August 14: I have been motoring through books. Bad Luck Girl (so fabulous I haven’t been able to figure out how to write a coherent review). Isla and the Happily Ever After (also lovely, review posting next week). Now onto Salt & Storm.

August 16: Sadly Salt & Storm wasn’t what I wanted it to be. It’s still lovely but just not in the way I hoped. Moving on to The Jewel now.

August 18: Finished with The Jewel which was another crushing disappointment.

August 22: Finished (loved!) The Strange Maid. Onto The Unbound!

August 28: OMG THE UNBOUND OMG. <3 This has been a really great reading month. I’m onto my tenth book Ten Cents a Dance and will add Chasing Power to next month’s rotation :)
